Buy Trail Snowmobiles for Sale

The trail segment represents the largest user base in the snowmobile industry. With hundreds of thousands of kilometres of groomed, mapped and signedtrails in Canada the riding opportunities are bountiful. Snowmobiles in this market segment are generally recognized as a hybrid of the other four design types. Trail sleds are very versatile and perform well in a vast variety of conditions and riding styles.

Arctic-Cat offers the popular F570 / F5 for newer riders or those that simply don't require 120+ horsepower. From this base model we move on up the "get going" scale to the Pro Cross X and Pro Cross XF model lines. The Pro Cross X model line is diverse offering both two stroke and (turbo charged) four stroke configurations, these shorter in length track models are known as being the kings of the 'tight and twisties' as well as the wide open lakes. The model line-up has evolved significantly from the revolutionary Arctic Cat ZR series which ruled snow cross in the 90's. The XF model line-up brings longer, deeper lugged tracks which increases snowmobile performance in deeper snow and over seriously whooped out trails.

Polaris has re-invented one of the best-selling snowmobile names. The Polaris Indy ruled the early 90's and was known for its durability and reliability; many are still found today out running the trails. The Indy has a remarkable 600cc engine under the hood that will run with the big boys on almost any trail. The Indy's little sister is the IQ shift, this capable and stylish full feature 550 is a perfect beginner sled. Polaris has been widely recognized as a top leader in the design and calibration of suspension systems and this is reflected through the Rush, Adventure and Switchback models which all have a rear progressive rate suspension that delivers a bottomless ride. Additionally, all three model lines deliver a wide range of power plants from the 600 Liberty to the Clean fire Injection 800R.
